Eternal Thief

Chapter 946  Heavenʼs Secret Condition

In the last nine years, Ace had been in seclusion, and he chose the same place where he destroyed the Heaven Imposing Sky Lock while his other body was still outside. He chose this place because it was well hidden, and the Qi density and law presence in this place were far richer than anywhere he had ever been. Furthermore, after the lock was unlocked, this place was empty, and there was no danger to speak of, so it was a good place for his training. Moreover, while he was in seclusion, his avatar was keeping an eye on the ten continentsʼ movements, and he knew everything about the merging of the continents and the current war against the Sea Kings Federation. Ace had never expected that the Heaven Imposing Sky Lock was the main reason behind the Grand Split thousands of years ago not to mention unlocking it would make them return to their original state.

Now, all the ten continents were one, and things were going in a mysterious direction, and the one controlling them all was the Union Lord. Lastly, the so-called calamity warned by the sword has yet to arrive, and now Ace is ninety percent sure that those words were just a sham to stop him from unlocking the Heaven Imposing Sky Lock. Moreover, Aceʼs avatar wasnʼt just doing nothing after the ten continents were combined and was up to something. Another thing worth mentioning was he had turned forty-three this year, and Eva was only a hair away from reaching the Law Comprehension Realm while Alina was still in the Mystic Bloodline Cist. Lillian was also working hard as she was about to enter the law awareness realm. Furthermore, three years back, the Blood Ancestor Margret died because after losing the Blood Scepter, she started to grow old as her boundless vitality began to dry, and lastly, the torture she was put through added oil to the flames. In the end, she didnʼt open her mouth. Even Freya wasnʼt able to achieve it because she was weaker than her, so she wasnʼt able to use her abilities. Still, that woman only had boundless hatred for Ace and everyone around him until the end. Since she died, Ace could only sigh as he had already found many clues about the Heaven Imposing Sky Lock, and he knew it was a scheme from someone who did not belong to this world. He still has the Heaven Imposing Sky Lockʼs formation plate, and with it, he might be able to find something. Nonetheless, he wasnʼt overly curious since it was necessary for him to know all that, and once this mission was done, he wonʼt be here to give a damn about it. At this moment, without hesitation, he covered himself in eerie Dismantle Qi, which was like ink at this moment, and opened the mission panel. The systemʼs voice rang for the first time in nine years. =====

===== Ace was shocked seeing the new mission and its requirements. ”Mortal Sky Heart Empire? Where is it?” He couldnʼt help but ask since he never heard about it before. ”[Itʼs the oldest power present in the Mortal Sky Heaven directly protected by the Mortal Sky Heavenly Will, also known as the Worldly Will. It is ruled by the Heavenly Mortal Emperor, created by Heaven itself to safeguard the Mortal Sky Ascension Temple for eternity. The Heavenly Mortal Emperor canʼt interfere with other matters of Heaven unless someone threatens to destroy its rules and laws.]

”[However, the Mortal Sky Ascension Temple and the Heavenly Mortal Emperor were in a sealed state because of the Union Continentʼs Protective Formation, which shouldnʼt exist in this place. Itʼs a protective measure to protect the Heavenʼs Secret. But it was directly hidden by Heaven when the World Lock locked the Mortal Sky Heavenly Will!]

”[Only by getting rid of the union and opening the world lock would they have appeared again. Now that the host had done it, both the Mortal Sky Ascension Temple and the Heavenly Mortal Emperor have returned.]

”[But the host needs to be very careful because the moment you alert the Heavenly Mortal Emperor, no one would be able to save you because he can use the Mortal Sky Heavenly Will, which would grant him access to endless power, and nothing would be able to hide from him in the Mortal Sky Heaven.]

”[Thatʼs why the host needs to use the Heavenly Punishment, which is akin to Heaven taking action itself, and the Heavenly Mortal Emperor wonʼt be able to interfere. Afterward…]” Ace was flabbergasted as he never expected the system would reveal everything to him about Heavenʼs Stealer Mission like this and even told him about what he needed to do at the end. Furthermore, the presence of this Heavenly Mortal Emperor and this hidden power was astounding for him, not to mention finding out just how powerful this existence directly created by Heaven was. He also began to understand why he needed to destroy the Union and then unlock the world lock. It was all for goading the Mortal Sky Ascension Temple out. Nonetheless, it sends chills to his spine just thinking about how the system already knew so much and carefully guided him at this point. Just one mishap and he wouldʼve been screwed, and now that the final mission was revealed, the system directly told him about the grand plan and his true purpose. It was to oppose Heaven and Steal its most protected and cherished secrets, which would put him on the true path of Heavenʼs Stealer, making him the Eternal Enemy of Heaven!
